We will be ordering extra maps but there is no guarantee of a run on your chosen course, if you leave it late to enter.
This entry system has been redesigned for 2024 but still allows for individual entries, pairs and groups (who wish to go round a course together). The scale of fees has also changed to cope with the increased contribution to the Public Liability cover required by British Orienteering.
Please read the Event Information below for help with using this system.
Once the first entry has been accepted, a Start List will appear at the bottom of this page, and the Courses box will update (from 3pm on Tuesday 6th February) to indicate the number of maps remaining (will be correct up to 8pm on Friday 9th February).
Full details are on the event webpage including an explanation of the Colour Coded courses. Please read these before you enter and again before the day to check for updates, especially on Friday evening in case the weather has affected the event. If not just turn up at the Start any time within the 15 minute start block you have selected and are listed below.

First time using this system? To save time when entering ESOC events, please take the time to set up a RACESIGNUP account and create profiles for all the members of the group or family you are entering. You only need to pay once you have entered all the individuals you wish to. More help with entering pairs or groups below.

To enter as a pair who will share a map and timing device enter the name of the second person on the form in the Group/Pairs name box. For a pair of juniors ensure the lead person on the entry form is a Junior.
If you want to enter as a group (up to 2 adults and 3 juniors) to go round a course together sharing a map and SI Dibber (timing device), provide the details of one adult as normal and, at the bottom of the form, select the number of additional people that make up the group.
